Question

I recently moved a magento install to a new server and a new domain. I updated all the entries in the database with the new domain and path. The admin works fine, indexing works fine, cache management works fine.

However on the front end, the site renders all the way until the first product, and then it stops. The rest of the products don’t render, and neither does the footer or any other blocks.

I tried to switch back to the vanilla theme that magento ships with, and it still happens.

The files on the new server are exactly the same (rsynced), and the only difference in the db is the domain and path.

Any ideas?

It’s a fatal error. Turn on developer mode and reload the page – you will see the error message.

You can turn on developer mode by two ways:
1. At backend
2. Change code in index.php from

if (isset($_SERVER['MAGE_IS_DEVELOPER_MODE'])) {
    Mage::setIsDeveloperMode(true);
}

to

//if (isset($_SERVER['MAGE_IS_DEVELOPER_MODE'])) {
    Mage::setIsDeveloperMode(true);
//}
